That is why carrying some of those tape for wiring one, in the car is good. In fact help me once, coming down Genting top hose burst. Stop at road side, open hood, let it cool, find the leak, tape it up, fill in water then drove back

Sounds like a good idea for temporary repair until you reach a workshop. I'll get one of these tape next time. But I need more details on the type of tape?

Yup, bro. pomen experience and expert too.....:driver:
Relatable experiences. Doesn't matter what your car is. Read before a blog about a R33 Skyline GT-R owner in Japan. Some of the things that the owner had went through with his car is almost same as mine. Bypass hose leaking, coolant all gone. Gearbox oil leaking. Even Skyline GT-R is not as divine and mighty as some online people claims. :biggrin:

Sorry, forgotten what is tlc again? Time, love and care? LOL :rofl:

When cars get old, doesn't matter if it is a Proton or GT-R or Mitsubishi or Honda... Certain things will still broke down and symptoms will show be it a normal car or sports car. Especially cars from the same era, normally will have similar symptoms.

But unfortunately, many ordinary people out there failed to realize this. Anything goes wrong, brand bashing comes first. :banghead:

The substance is red in colour and does not evaporate at all. A mechanic told me it may be my injector seal leak and the substance is fuel. However, to my knowledge, fuel will evaporate almost instantly and should not leave behind red substances right? My injector seal...
